D'Addario .009 - .046 on everything electric
I have used this brand for years.
I buy them a 10-pack box at a time.
Very satisfied on all my guitars.

I've been using D'Addario strings ever since I first saw them in a music store here and I've been singing their praises since then too.I use their nickel wound .008-.038 on all my electric guitars and use their nickel wound .010-.046 with a plain 3rd on my acoustics. They hold their brightness and tuning much longer than most other strings and I find the D'Addarios much easier to bend than strings of the same gauge from other manufacturers. They also are more resistant to metal fatigue and stay in tune after a 3 step bend or heavy vibrato arm use.

I usually play D'addario strings on my acoustic, but I wanted to try something different- so I tried DR Coated Strings (light) and I was disappointed to say the least. I wanted to try some Ernie Ball acoustic strings but can't find them. Everything acoustic is either Martin or D'addario- which is fine unless you want to try something different.

Otherwise, electrics I use Ernie Ball Super Slinky's..

I use mostly D'Addario strings, but have used EB with pretty good
results at times too.
